ニューヨークで超落ち着く日本料理屋さんです。最高でした！日本の皆様にもぜひ紹介したいです！
This place reminded me so much of Japan!! Not just because of the decor, but the food! The rice has that special flavor only found in Japan, the sashimi is perfection, and the tempura was delicious. We loved everything
The food, service, and atmosphere were phenomenal. I will definitely come back.

Yopparai is a restaurant that offers a unique sake experience, showcasing a variety of sakes to be appreciated in different temperatures. The atmosphere is fantastic, featuring traditional tatami mat seating that creates a cozy and transportive ambiance, enhanced by quiet jazz music. Many customers enjoy the comfortable seating positions in the booths, which provide a more intimate vibe. It is an excellent choice for special occasions, with high-quality ingredients and a comprehensive drinks list, including gluten-free soy sauce.

The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring quick service and refilling water promptly. Although it is a little out of the way, Yopparai is worth the visit for some sake and a few bites, particularly for those looking for an authentic experience. Reservations are recommended to secure a tatami mat booth for the best experience. Whether for a unique date night or an immersive taste of Japan, Yopparai delivers an unforgettable dining experience that many describe as fun and delicious.
